4 days after surgery
Jun 08, 2010
I sure was planning on doing this blogging stuff on a daily basis, but since I have not I will begin with the day of surgery Friday June 4,2010.All went well, I did have little problem getting out of recovery 1 because they like to have your O2 level at 93%, since I tend to hold my breath due to pain my dropped, pluse 2 shots of morophine did not help this either. Overall everything went well and Came home the day/evening of surgery.
Sat. slept on and off all day for the most part an uneventful day, I felt pretty good.
Sun. Was good, went grocery shopping, and took it very slow and no I did not drive, but it was great to get out of the house. I felt really good!!!
Mon am. Was a great morning, not a great deal of pain and sat up in the chair for a while, decided I wanted to get out of the house though, so I got in my car and drove through the yard to my in-laws...Needless to say she got a kick out of that, but I just did not feel like walking up that hill again. By afternoon, I was not feeling so great and having to take a lot of gas-x. It has not been an awful afternoon, just tired and bloated. I know I am healing and I am good with this.
Tues. Did not feel so great today, again still sore, but not reallly painful, seems like everything I drink makes me gassie.
It was a busy tuesday, with having to take little one to orthodontist, then stopping so she and husband could get lunch while I drank an unsweetened tea. They feel guilty eating in front of me, but I tell them not to worry about it cause I am not hungry. I am getting tired of Chicken broth & jello and I am looking forward to week 2 with the addition of yogurt, and protein drinks, that I will be sipping on forever, as the last thing that I want to do or be is SICK...so far so good!!!
I am looking forward to FRIDAY, cause I can begin week 2, with the addition of yogurt and protein drinks. My fridge is packed with Atkins vanilla protein shakes (they taste like snow cream) and yoplait lime yogurt. I am happy with the decision even with the bad days...it is still good.
